While I was brushing Horatio today I round a small bloody spotted rash near the back of his neck. The hair seems thinner there (but it could also be because he is shedding due to Australian Summer coming), but it is only a small patch and then the skin goes normal.
He is acting his normal active self - bounding around the apartment and loving cuddles with us. He has shown no signs of pain apart from when I was brushing that spot and then realised what was there. He just pulled away a little bit, but no noise.
He turns 1 year old in Janurary, eats a normal diet of lots of hay, pellets and veggies every other night and sometimes a little bit of fruit. He has sultanas as treats to train him.
He lives in a big 3 level hutch when we are out, and then has the whole apartment when we are home. He has never had ANY medical problems since we got him when he was 8 weeks old.
It looks like mites or heat rash? There has been no signs of bugs in his house or in our apartment. I have some revolution kitten and puppy grade flee and mite stuff that I got just in case, so should I use that?
HELP!!! I am so worried about my man.
